Mandarin for Pre -Teens

Teaching Chinese to pre-teenagers is both challenging and rewarding. Children who are between 10-12 years old start to develop their ability to learn Chinese by logic. They like to know why and they can learn Chinese by knowing its system. They can learn fast as this is the last opportunity to learn to speak another language perfectly.

Chinese for Teens

This class is design for children in middle and high schools. Although teenagers start to lost their ability to learn a second language starting from 13 year old and older, but their awareness to know the importance of learning a foreign Chinese should motivate them with the language learning process. So in short, motivation plays a big role in this age group and we do utilized it greatly. We also implement the idea of learning Chinese language to communicate with 1/5 of the world population as a business language communication tool.
